5150 SERIES
GLASSBREAK
SHOCK SENSOR
On-the-Glass Sensor
Model number: 5150, 5150C
• New low profile design
• Up to 10' (3 m) range on a single
pane of glass
• Easy to use, field-proven 3M
®
adhesive mounting
• Detects all types of glass without
adjustment
• Ideal for 24–hour loop protection
The 5150 Series Shock Sensor is a new line of
glassbreak sensors with improved aesthetics. Its clean
design makes the detector one of the most low profile
sensors in the industry. Advanced piezo transducer
technology powers the sensor, so no power is needed
from the loop. Instead, the piezo generates its own
electricity when it bends as the glass breaks. Bending
of the transducer must occur for the sensor to go into
alarm providing excellent false alarm immunity.
Specially formulated 3M® tape holds the shock
sensor on the glass. The tape, which sets up quickly,
has been field-tested for proven reliability. The sensor
can be repositioned during the first five minutes of
installation.
For up to 10' (3 m) of protection on a single pane of
glass, the 5150 is ideal for small glass rooms, next to
kitchen sinks, in high noise areas, in occupied factory
and office environments, and in retrofit installations
where only 2-wire protection is practical. The 5150
offers 24-hour perimeter detection and its on-the-glass
mounting is a visual deterrent.
